How any of these developers can call themselves engineers and still look themselves in the mirror is beyond me. An engineer's job is to design the most efficient structure in as little time, and cheap manner as possible that still produce a reasonable and satisfactory result. What all modern web apps have in common is that they cut all corners on development time prior to release to then be forced to optimize the hell out of the mess afterwards in perpetuity. A simple tech stack would accomplish the same tasks with minimal extra initial development time and effort, but would remain performant for a very long time.

I'm absolutely devastated NVIDIA are like this, we can't let them do this. It's such a useful feature with the best latency, stability, and overall performance. With AV1 HW encoding this could've become even better with 4K HDR 120 FPS with minimal bandwidth requirements.

Well, that was my point. After 3 months everyone had forgot about it.

The apple v epic saga has lead to the same result. Epic pulled fortnite from the appstore and blamed apple for taking all their money. Now the kids are mad at apple for inciting the removal of their favorite game.

It's standard practice when installing things on macos. Although it's typically signed .dmg's

Notifications and sorting for new like reddit has.

Only thing I think they should implement proper responsive design so that you can have the width of the window less than 800px or whatever without getting overflow. I think at around 500px it switches to mobile view, so there's a gap in between when you have a horizontal scroll bar.

Since side loading is a thing on macos this is a nonissue for the users, ios on the other hand... They're really only hampering adoption of the app store by placing ridiculous restrictions.

How does it improve on neovim? Seems to me like slightly different keybindings to do the exact same thing, you're not saving any keystrokes or fatigue as far as I can tell.

Is there an alternative for g0, g$ and gj, gk? It will act on wrapped lines like they're separate.

What you said can also be true with a modern linux or bsd install. Use something like arch linux or nixos and only install the bare bones like a windows manager, text editor, irc client and a web browser. You'll have no notifications, it's all up to you and you'll also have an updated and secure machine.

Sorry, but that's not any excuses for you not to start learning! Looks like your problem is procrastination which we all struggle with. Old age is also not as bad we're lead to believe for learning. It's all about getting into the habit of studying. That can come after an idea that turns into a goal and is kept in motion by brute force will. Alternatively the peer pressure from school or a course can keep you going and meeting goals effortlessly.

There are now many easily accessible online resources like 3blue1brown's "essence of" series [1], Khan academy [2], or Brilliant.org's courses [3].

People like their games, but as a company they're horrible to their fans and gamers. Here just some of it from Charlie: https://youtu.be/5cSCLceDAjM https://youtu.be/dOKF9t-hfEw

It's bold of the Nintendo family to make such statements about Japanese society when they can't even get their own company under control themselves. Nintendo is probably the most universally hated gaming company and it's true of other Japanese companies as well. They seem to be scared of the internet and goes out of their way to claim copyright infringement on anything fan made having to do with their intellectual property. They will try take down everything they possibly can, it's so bad you have to fear covering any of their games, even their music on platforms such as YouTube. Any efforts to preserve old Nintendo games via e.g. emulation is quickly met with a lawsuit. Whether or not you comply with their requests they will try to sue you for millions, even children. Just check out all the recent cases on Google. https://www.google.com/search?q=nintendo+sues

Like how most things is for a reason. Especially within rigorous domains such as engineering, math, physics and programming. It is not to be expected in BS vendors safe space in subjects like politics, economics and social science.
